what type of spoons do u mean when u say 2 spoons of oil??? and whats the 2 spoons of oil and the 1/2 cooking spooon of vegetable oil for??? and what do u mean by 1/4 of onion nd then later 1/8 onion? and do you fry the gizzards before stiring it in as u did with the plantains??? because i was told u fry both plantain and gizzards!!

Hi Ronnie, The 2 spoons of vegetable oil are for frying the plantain. The 1/2 cooking spoon is for stir frying the gizzard and dodo. 1/4 bulb of onion is all i used for the recipe. Remember you can modify this to fit your dish. I used half of that to cook the gizzard and half of it to stir fry the final product. I did not fry the gizzard before stirring it in as I was going to fry it in the sauce anyway.
